Thank you for your compliments. I had to do some digging but I was able to find where I got this block from. The block is from a book called "5,500 Quilt Block Designs", it is block 2675 - called Spinning Star. I have never seen a pattern for it anywhere. I used my quilt program to recreate the block in the book to layout the block and quilt to the size I wanted. Mine has a 2" center square, 4 sub-squares that measure 5 x 7 to finish the overall block size at 12". I modified some of the blocks to create the cross in the center of the quilt. It is kind of hard to see in the photo as the blue I used in this quilt is very light. If you would like some help with this block, send me a PM and I will help you out in any way I can.
